A battery is made by joining m rows of identical cells in parallel. Each row consists of n cells joined in series. This battery sends a maximum current I in a given external resistor. Now the cells are so arranged that instead of m rows, n rows are joined in parallel and each row consists of m cells joined in series. Find the current through the same external resistor (Total number of cells which is equal to nm is connected)
